"AUTOBIOGRAFSKI UGOVOR" RATNOG PISMA S POTPISOM ALENKE MIRKOVIĆ I GROZDANE CVITAN

Author(s): Miranda Levanat-Peričić / Language(s): Croatian / Issue: 2/2016

This paper deals with the relationship of the wartime literature and the autobiographical discourse in the fictional and non-fictional texts written by two contemporary Croatian authoresses, Alenka Mirković and Grozdana Cvitan. From the receptional point of view, when the autobiographical discourse connects with the wartime themes, the importance of the social status of the author is substituted by the socially important topics, and the question of “who has the right to the story of his own life” (Velčić 1991) turns into a question of “what is a socially relevant theme?” Prevalence of topics that are important to collective memory in wartime literature is almost self-explanatory; this kind of topic is selected by Alenka Mirković in her Vukovar war chronicle 97.6 Mhz. Glasom protiv topova. Mala ratna kronika ((11996, 22011). While the novel written by Alenka Mirković meets the reader’s expectations by offering “autobiographical contract” (Ph. Lejeune) in which the name on the cover guarantees the identity of the author and the narrator, in short stories written by Grozdana Cvitan, Psi rata i druge bestije (2007), a war reality becomes awider framework of literary (self)reflection with an absence of documentarity. Although in her war stories there is no classic autobiographical contract (since there is no correspondence between the name of the author and narrator), the character of the narrator who listens leaving the others to become the main protagonists, guarantees an authentic cover for mediation of autobiographical testimony.

"Demokracija je počela" - demokratski izbori u Općini Bjelovar 1990.

Author(s): Željko Karaula / Language(s): Croatian / Issue: 2/2008

The downfall of the communist system in Europe in 1989, during a peoples’ awakening of a kind, was very soon reflected upon the events occurring in Socialist Yugoslavia, where the Yugoslav Communist Union had, until that time, exercised absolute power. Under the pressure of the communist system having fallen down in Eastern Europe, the true power takeover happened in 1990, when – after the introduction of a multi-party system – the Communist Union disappeared from the Croatian political scene. Referring to and based upon articles from local newspapers, publications issued by political parties and other written sources, the author notes how hard the way to democracy had been and indicates to the emergence of political parties in the area of the then Bjelovar Municipality. The paper presents the election results in the Bjelovar area in detail.

"Hele, lufťáci přijeli..."

Proč je stále v oblibě chalupářství v českých zemích

Author(s): Irena Cejpová / Language(s): Czech / Issue: 3-4/2020

Petra Schindler-Wisten's monograph titled "About holiday homes and people: Holiday homes in the Czech Lands in the period of so-called normalization and transformation" (Prague: Univerzita Karlova and Karolinum, 2017) maps the phenomenon of holiday cottages in the Czech Lands since its very beginnings in the 19th century almost until today. In this respect, she focuses on the post-war period of the Communist regime, in particular the 1970s and 1980s, the years of the so-called normalization, when this type of spending one’s free time, and partly also a lifestyle consisting in spending weekends and holidays in own houses and cottages, indeed became a mass phenomenon in Czechoslovakia. Using results of oral history research, she is looking for reasons why the so-called “second housing” became so popular among various groups of the Czech society, social and economic differences notwithstanding. The reviewer appreciates the publication as the first attempt to deal with the topic in question in a clear and comprehensive manner and from a historical point of view rather than from sociological or socio-geographic ones, which represents a significant factual enrichment of the current state of knowledge. However, she also formulates some methodological reservations with respect to the research project whose results are presented in reviewed work, claiming that not enough clear reasons have been given to justify its starting points and outlining untapped opportunities in this respect.

"Image" hrvatskih političkih stranaka

Author(s): Ivan Šiber / Language(s): Croatian / Issue: 01/1994

Using the method of assigning attributes, the image of political parties represented in the Croatian parliament was researched. This research was conducted on a sample of Zagreb University’s students. The image was determined, as was its associations, and positiveness. Through factor analysis four dimensions were found, in which the first and most important is related to the image of democratic activity of the party, while the other three are indicative of political platforms - social, traditional and nation building. The political parties were found to differ significantly according to their position on each dimension.

"Provincializimi i Evropës" dhe Debati Publik Mbi Integrimin Evropian

Author(s): Enis Sulstarova / Language(s): Albanian / Issue: 2/2006

Në prag të nënshkrimit të Asociim Stabilizimit me Bashkimin Evropian, në shtypin shqiptar nisën replikat e ashpra midis Ismail Kadaresë dhe Rexhep Qoses, jehona e të ciht vazhdon edhe sot. Prej këtij debati, ku u përshinë gati të gjithë intelektualët dhe opinionbërësit më në zë brenda dhe jashtë kufirit shtetëror (deri te arbëreshët, shih Mandala & Marku, 2006), si edhe prej debateve të tjerë të ngjashëm që janë shfaqur më parë dhe herë pas here në shtypin shqiptar, krijohej përshtypja se çështja e integrimit të Shqipërisë në BE po debatohet seriozisht në publik. Mirëpo nuk është kështu. Si ndodh rëndom në këtë vend, debati Kadare-Qose, si edhe shumë të tjerë para tij, ishte tejet provincial, me gjithë përfshitjen në të të intelektualëve tanë të shquar. E quaj provincial, sepse nuk u fol mbi përfitimet e shoqërisë shqiptare prej procesit të anëtarësimin, detyrimet e Shqipërisë në këtë fazë të re të rrugës së integrimit, mbi ecurinë e reformave, mbi ngadalësimin apo edhe dështimin e tyre të dukshëm në disa drejtime, mbi altemativat e ofiuara për realizimin sa më mirë të objektivave të integrimit etj. E thënë shkurt, nuk ishte një debat politik. Debati u soll në mënyrë të ngushtë rreth pyetjes së çuditshme: a janë apo jo evropianë shqiptarët? Pse ndodhi kjo? Pse mendimi intelektual shqiptar është i paaftë të gjenerojë një debat politik mbi integrimin dhe ta lerë "integrimin" të përdoret vetëm në rrafshin e propagandës elektorale dhe të garës së rëndomtë të partive pohtike për të marrë flamurin e evropianizmit? Pse jem i një vendperiferik duhet të zhvillojmë vetëm debate publikeprovinciale?

"Sve što smo imali, sve što smo bili, svelo se na uspomene". Osobne Pripovijesti i pisma prognanika iz istočne Slavonije

Author(s): Irena Plejić / Language(s): Croatian / Issue: 15/1992

Based on three personal narratives and three letters of refugees from war struck regions of Croatia, the author investigates how such accounts can be approached as ethnographic data, the structure and contents of these accounts reveal that the war and refugee experience have influenced the way the refugees see themselves and think about certain core values of their culture. The author brings some insightful observations about the war as a period of reversed order, about gradual transformation of the cosmopolitan attitude of the inhabitants of Vukovar, about photographs and other mementos saved from the family house, which is seen as an irreplaceable determinant of the identity of the refugees, and finally, about the iconography of the refugees' current living quartos.

"Takvoga bogatstva oni nisu vidjeli"

Author(s): Marina Škrabalo,Tea Trkulja / Language(s): Croatian / Issue: 15/1992

Transcribed personal narratives of two refugees from central (a Serb from Banija, male, about 60 years old), and eastern Croatia (a Croat from eastern Slavonia, female, about 60 years old) are treated in this text as ethnographic data. The authors have arranged their accounts in contrastive pairs which relate their attitudes, notions and commentaries about the beginning of the war in Croatia, about encounters with different armies (Yugoslav national army, Croatian army, etc.), about the transformation of daily life in war situation, about the things which the refugees thought were important to take when leaving their homes and about their return.

"Važno je imati moćnog vođu!" Analiza autoritarnosti u hrvatskom društvu od 1999. do 2018. godine

Author(s): Krunoslav Nikodem / Language(s): Croatian / Issue: 3/2019

The primary goal of this paper is the analysis of authoritarianism in Croatian society which is based on the results from the European Values Study. In a theoretical sense, we are following Bob Altemeyer’s concept of authoritarianism, which is defined as the combination of three attitudinal clusters–authoritarian submission, authoritarian aggression and conventionalism (Altemeyer, 1988). The analysis is divided into two parts. In the first part we analyse separately eight particles which comprise our authoritarian construct with the basic socio-demographic characteristics for the year 2018. In the second part we use the authoritarianism index as criterion for the three-predictor model (socio-demographic characteristics, religiosity and trust). On the basic level, the results show an increase of those who consider that having a strong leader is good and that it would be a good thing to have greater respect for authority in the near future. Further analysis shows that a lower level of education, the importance of God in life, and trust in the Church are the most important predictors for authoritarianism in Croatian society.

(Trajna) nedovršenost države?

Author(s): Aleksandar R. Miletić / Language(s): Serbian / Publication Year: 2019

Nedovršenost države, koju je Đinđić video kao uzrok unutrašnjih protivrečnosti u jugoslovenskoj federaciji i kasnije u Srbiji njegovog vremena, do danas se već u značajnoj meri normalizovala kao stanje stvari i svesti. Politički akteri i društvo u Srbiji sa njom ozbiljno računaju; ona je postala značajan deo identitetske legitimacije društva koje kao da ne bi umelo da funkcioniše izvan kategorija fiktivnog suvereniteta i zamrznutog konflikta na Kosovu. Uzimajući Đinđićevu postavljenu dijagnozu i hronologiju pojave izlazi da ova nedovršenost institucija i neizvesnost državnog statusa na različite načine traju neprekidno od druge polovine 60-ih godina prošlog veka, dakle već pola stoleća. Godišnjica atentata na prvog demokratski izabranog premijera Srbije čini se kao dobar povod da se razmotri istorijski kontekst ovih prvih 50 godina naše nedovršenosti. Nije zgoreg, naime, biti pripravan za nastupajuće godišnjice. Počećemo od socijalističke Jugoslavije.

1 Decembrie la Cluj-Napoca (1949-2004). Anatomia unei sărbători

Author(s): Elena Bărbulescu,Constantin Bărbulescu / Language(s): Romanian / Issue: 7/2005

Cercetarea comemorărilor lui 1 Decembrie în Clujul postrevoluționar este realizată pe două paliere: unul etnologic, folosind metoda anchetei participative, și un al doilea istoric, constând în analiza discursului presei și a celui istoriografic. Cu alte cuvinte, într-o primă parte studiul trece în revistă modul cum după 1989 a fost comemorat 1 Decembrie la Cluj-Napoca, face un istoric al evoluției sărbătorilor comemorative, iar într-o parte secundă se reconstituie destinul semnificației Unirii în perioada 1948-1989. În intervalul 1948-1968 nu există comemorări oficiale ale evenimentelor din 1918, iar discursul istoriografic recuperează timid după 1960 o semnificație națională a evenimentelor de la 1 Decembrie. Comemorarea explodează fastuos în 1968 cu ocazia semicentenarului și va căpăta tot mai multă importanță, direct proporțional cu poziția tot mai independentă a regimului Ceaușescu față de URSS. Comemorarea este un eveniment simbolic direct subordonat discursului politic. Dar și discursul istoriografic este supus celui politic; anul 1968 reprezintă și relansarea temei Marii Uniri în istoriografia română, temă care de acum și până în 1989 are un destin asigurat. De fapt, destinul postrevoluționar al lui 1 Decembrie nu poate fi nici măcar imaginat în absența recuperării sale în ultimele trei decenii ale perioadei comuniste. Din acest punct de vedere avem de-a face cu o continuitate.

10 mišljenja Badinterove komisije

Author(s): Author Not Specified / Language(s): Serbian / Publication Year: 2008

Badinterova komisija je osnovana povodom Konferencije o bivšoj Jugoslaviji u Hagu 1991. godine i njena arbitraža ima snagu međunarodne presude. Ova međunarodna arbitražna komisija, kolokvijalno nazvana Badinterova, dobila je ime po njenom predsedavajućem Roberu Badinteru. Članovi Badinterove komisije bili su svi predsednici ustavnih sudova država osnivača Evropske unije. Reč je o uglednim pravnim stručnjacima koji su stvorili sveobuhvatan dokument sastavljen od 10 mišljenja. Većina građana Srbije i dalje misli da je to grupa međunarodnih eksperata, koja je tadašnjoj SRJ nanela ogromnu štetu i doprinela raspadu SFR Jugoslavije, mahom zbog toga što je to bio zvaničan stav vlasti za vreme Slobodana Miloševića. Prenosimo svih deset mišljenja tzv. Badinterove komisije, koja su devedesetih godina postala deo međunarodnog javnog prava.

105. brigada Hrvatske vojske iz Bjelovara na zapadno-slavonskom bojištu tijekom 1991. godine

Author(s): Željko Karaula / Language(s): Croatian / Issue: 4/2019

At the beginning of October 1991, preparations began within the 105th Brigade of the Croatian Army from Bjelovar for the movement towards the West Slavonian battlefield, where the military pressure of the Yugoslav People’s Army and insurgent Serbs on the Croatian defense was strong. Parts of the brigade made an important contribution to the liberation of the first liberated place on the Novljan battlefield in the village of Bujavica, while the attack on the neighboring occupied town of Lovska was unsuccessful. After that, the 105th Brigade was engaged in Operation „Orkan-91“ within the Operational Group „Posavina“. According to the idea of that operation, the forces of the Operational Group „Posavina“ on the stretch Novska – Nova Gradiška should be joined, the Yugoslav People’s Army and the rebel Serbs in the area of Lipik and Pakrac should be cut off and the Bjelovar Operational Zone should be allowed to destroy them. However, despite some successful moves and the liberation of parts of the Croatian territory occupied (the village of Bair) within the 105th Brigade, there were significant losses in manpower (battle for the Triangle), which significantly in the moral sense shook the brigade. Although the brigade was ready to keep its positions, it was withdrawn to Bjelovar at the beginning of November 1991, by order of the Bjelovar Operational Zone. The work on the basis of the initiated project of making a scientific monograph of the 105th Brigade, archival sources, literature and oral history provides basic information about the war journey of members of the 105th Brigade who engaged and fought in the area.

1980 SONRASI SIRP MİLLİYETÇİLİĞİ : MİLOŞEVİÇ ve İRREDENTİZM

Author(s): Caner Sancaktar / Language(s): Turkish / Issue: 47/2020

The Socialist Yugoslavia was founded as a result of liberation war under the leadership of the Communist Party of Yugoslavia against nationalism and fascisim. However, nationalism in Yugoslavia could not be completley destroyed and continued to be a destructive problem for Yugoslavia. Serbian nationalism, the most powerful nationalist movement in Yugoslavia, recoverde rapidly after 1980 like other nationalist movements in Yugoslavia. The ultimate aim of Serbian nationalism re-empowered under the leadership of Slobodan Milosevic was to establish “Geater Serbia”. Consequently, the Serbian Irredentism rose under the leadership of Milosevic and played a destructive role in the bloody collapse of the Socialist Yugoslavia in the 1990s.

1980 Sonrası Türkiye’nin Büyük Kent Sorunu ve Göç Olgusu

Author(s): Ece Demiray Erol,İbrahim Erol / Language(s): Turkish / Publication Year: 0

Türkiye’de 1980 sonrası değişen bölgesel politikalar çerçevesinde büyük şehirlerin nüfusları aşırı bir biçimde artmıştır. Türkiye’deki göç hareketlerinin artışında Neoliberal politikalar ve küreselleşme hareketleri etkili olmuştur. Bu göç olgusunun perde arkasında büyük kentlerdeki daha iyi yaşam koşullarının varlığı, yeni iş fırsatları, eğitim ve sağlık hizmetlerinden daha iyi yararlanma ile kültür olanakları ön plana çıkmaktadır. Bu çalışmanın amacı büyük kent sorununu analiz etmek, büyük kentlerin olumlu ve olumsuz etkilerini tartışarak optimal şehir büyüklüğünü ortaya koymak ve bu çerçevede göç olgusunu değerlendirmektir. Değerlendirmeyi zorlaştıran en önemli etken bu alandaki çalışmaların çok az olmasıdır.

1989: Ten Years On

Author(s): Melvin Croan / Language(s): English / Issue: 02/1999

What is a decade in thy sight, O Clio? The muse aside, time has acquired novel urgency in our meta-postmodern age of instantaneous communication and sound-byte stutterings. This, in turn, quickens the natural intellectual impulse to take account, to render judgment, to extract meaning, to look for lessons. Surely a full decade constitutes a decent interval. After all, this very journal carried "A Survey of Opinion on the East European Revolution" only a few months after the event, a survey of opinion that even today strikes one as generally sound and occasionally insightful.

1990’lardan 2020’lere Genç Etkinlik Sergileri

Author(s): Hülya Küpçüoğlu / Language(s): Turkish / Issue: 66/2020

Opening of contemporary art venues such as Aksanat, Borusan Sanat, Karşı Sanat in the 1990s supported the development of the Turkish contemporary art field. The biggest organization of the art environment in these years is undoubtedly Young Events. In 1995, President of the International Plastic Arts Association, Hüsamettin Koçan brings up a new project for the young artists of the period. This project will be open to all young artists and they will be able to exhibit their work as desired. The period is also the years in which subjects such as identity or ethnic identity, borders are examined. In this framework, the Association organized “Borders and Beyond” as the concept of Young Event 1, “Deterritorialization” in Young Event 2, “Chaos” in Young Event 3 and Young Event 4 without concepts. After a quiet break from 1998 to 2011, Young Events started again in 2011. However, this time it is not open to the participation of every artist. The artists will be determined by a jury. Young Event 8 was last done in 2019 under the name “Homo Historicus-Homo Projectus”. Young Events in the 1990s were made to provide an environment for the young artists of the period, who had difficulties in finding a gallery to open an exhibition, to encourage production freely because it was unselected, and to make them visible. As a result, many artists who opened exhibitions at the Young Events in the 1990s became visible. It has been observed that the artists participating in the Young Events in 2010 in terms of changing socio-cultural conditions and technology did not activate a mechanism of influence as in the 1990s. In this article, Young Events held in different years will be examined and their dynamics over the years will be given comparatively.
